less players at cryptologic

Found the following explanation on poker site scout's site....

"At the end of May, 2007, CryptoLogic made certain changes to their network configuration which allow a different selection of games to be made available on different sites. Those changes have affected the traffic we are showing for CryptoLogic.

There are now micro-limit games which are offered by about half of the sites on the network. To capture the new limits, we have switched our CryptoLogic coverage over to Betsafe.

Also, with the new network configuration, William Hill is now treated as a unique site on the network. There are some tables which are available only on William Hill and nowhere else on the network. Likewise, there are some tables which are available everywhere on the network except William Hill, and there are other tables which are shared across the entire network including William Hill.

As with every network, our traffic data on CryptoLogic comes from a single site (in this case Betsafe). However, with the new fragmented network configuration, there is no longer any single site that shows all of the tables running on the entire CryptoLogic network. Therefore, from a financial perspective (though not necessarily from a player's perspective), the CryptoLogic network has more poker traffic than shown here. We currently have no estimate for the amount of traffic that is unique to William Hill, but it is significant and it most likely accounts for at least a substantial portion of the recent decrease in traffic at the CryptoLogic network."
